Don't try these! They're not even the proper length. Go with Techart instead or even Eibach if you can find the proper springs for the 997TT.

 

Are they too low?

How do you know? Have you used them?

H+R says Gemballa is a reseller and uses them.

Eibach does not currently sell springs for the Turbo. I think Eibach may make the Techart springs exclusively for Techart.

Eibach said they have something in the pipeline. But that also means it will be an unknown spring and a gamble for an early buyer.

So, it sounds like the Techart springs are the only game in town for now.

 

Do champion sell some?

 

Yeah Champion sells the H&R springs - rebadged(at least that is what I heard).

 

They can't be that bad if Champion and Gemballa sell them.

 

If you know your Porsche history, H&R has been a supplier for many years, including all the GT2s and 3s. I think they know what they are doing. At least they don't steal factory parts and reverse engineer. F##k TA and the horse they road in on...

 

For some reason, the H&R springs are not full length which results in a slightly choppy ride. Others have reported that Techart springs which are full length progressive springs have given a much more compliant ride.

 

Crazy isn't it what people will rebrand and sell to what they consider unsuspecting customers. Relabeling drives me nuts especially when I find out who it was supplied by and I could go to the supplier which also sells to the consumer for 1/2 the price. Innovation and originality goes a long way in my books. I would pay the difference when there is a difference but not when its relabled and resold at sometimes twice the MSRP of the less marketed/targeted brand from the supplier.

Now I agree with Atomic - I have heard the H&R were not as compliant as the TechArts. I like that it lowers it more than the TechArts but I would not give up the ride quality to get 5mm's lower.

I really want a set of coilovers from Bilstein PSS9 when they get some released to market soon.
